Steps:
- Remove the stems and seeds from the dried chipotle and ancho chiles. Toss the chiles in a small saucepan, cover with 1 cup (237 ml) water, and boil for about 15 minutes, until most of the cooking liquid has been absorbed.
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon oil. Add 1/3 of the beef and cook until the meat is well seared on each side, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and repeat with the remaining meat in 2 more batches, adding 1 tablespoon oil to the pan after each batch. When the meat has been seared, toss the garlic in the pan and cook until golden brown on all sides.
- Return the seared meat and any juices that may have collected in the bowl to the saucepan or Dutch oven. Sprinkle the meat with flour, chile powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, and sugar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the fresh chiles into the saucepan, too.
- Pour the boiled chiles and their cooking water into a blender or food processor and purée. Pour the chile mixture over the meat and spices. Add the beer and the bouillon cube, if using. The liquid should just cover the meat. Cover and gently simmer the meat for at least 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and the sauce is slightly thickened and silken.
- Serve the beef chili with the tortillas, wedges of lime, crème fraîche, or sour cream, cilantro, onion, avocado, and grated cheese.

BEEF TACO CHILI
This one of my husband's absolute favorite dishes. It was also voted Best Chili in our county's autumn Harvest Festival. If you like less broth, use just 1-3/4 cups water and 1-1/2 tsp. bouillon. -Dana Beery, Ione, Washington

SPICY BEEF CHILI
If you like really spicy beef chili, this is a quick and simple recipe to try. I don't include measurements for some of the spices as they should be to taste (the more, the better for me). I taste the chili throughout the simmering process and add more spice as I go.

- Use a variety of chili peppers: Combine different types of chili peppers, such as ancho, guajillo, and chipotle, to create a complex and flavorful chili.
- Add aromatics: Sauté onions, garlic, and bell peppers in olive oil before adding the beef to build a flavorful base for the chili.
- Use a flavorful liquid: Use beef broth, chicken broth, or even beer as the liquid base for the chili to enhance its taste.
- Simmer for a long time: Allow the chili to simmer for at least an hour, or even longer, to develop its flavors and tenderize the beef.
- Season to taste: Adjust the seasonings in the chili to your preference, adding more chili powder, cumin, or salt as needed.
- Garnish before serving: Top the chili with shredded cheese, sour cream, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro for a delicious and visually appealing presentation.
